Parenting Young Children (PYC)
The PYC program contains two modules:
Module one focuses on child care skills and involves assisting parents to develop skills around food preparation, nutrition, bathing, sleeping, and health care.
Module two focuses on parent-child interactions. It teaches parents to provide stimulating play activities for their child, and how to use praise, modelling and other parent-child interaction skills.
